CVE-2026-111949 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-21

The miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin allows an attacker who knows a user's password to register their own authenticator during a pending passkey login, bypassing the second-factor authentication protection. This lets attackers gain unauthorized access to WordPress user accounts that rely on this plugin's multi-factor authentication, even when passkeys are configured.

## Technical details

The vulnerability is an authentication bypass in the passkey registration flow: the plugin fails to restrict additional passkey registration when a passkey-based login is pending, allowing an attacker with password knowledge to add their own authenticator via CWE-287 (Improper Authentication). The attacker must have obtained the user's password through other means and have network access to the WordPress installation; the attack requires no user interaction. The fix is available in version 6.3.1.
